First impression...considering the name is 24k nudes, I expected better colours.
The gold inside the palette didn't really stand out and with the name 24k, I expected more.
HOWEVER, after looking over the whole palette and the back where it kind of gives you the various breakdowns of the palette, it was much more interesting.
I can see how the colours work together instead of being a somewhat dulled and mis-matched palette.
The other colours are actually quite gorgeous, I absolutely love the top left shade, it reminds me of Urban Decay Sin which is absolutely my favourite colour.
The colour payoff is average and the packaging is average as well.. A light plasticky mold with a double ended sponge tip ( which I hate btwww)
other than that , the palette is decent for a drug store range palette.
The colours take a bit warming up to but can definitely get a few looks out of it.
invest in your own brush for this palette though.

Great product from Maybelline!!
This liquid highlighter is amazing.
A little bit goes a long way and you literally just need a small dot of the product for each cheek. It also blends and smooths out so well and the glow is subtle ! Even if the glow is subtle, it totally catches your eyes.
I can only say good things about this product

Maybelline New York Dream Brightening Creamy Concealer

It's an average concealer. I didn't find the coverage that opaque even though it states it as Medium to Full coverage.
I like that it is creamy enough to blend well, only a small amount covers a wide area. However, I am not a fan of the finish, it's more dewy / less matte than the foundation which i find it enhances the areas I'm trying to hide instead. Also with that finish + the brightening properties of the concealer, I find that I see my wrinkles more.

Maybelline New York Facestudio Master Camo Colour Correcting Kit

First of all, I want to say I don't like cream palettes. I find they get dirty quite easily and thinks stick to it! In this case, before I even opened the product I already saw black specks of dust...Aside from that...reviewing the actual product.
I also find the products average.
I think having a palette is handy on the go for MUAs or someone travelling perhaps. Personally I found it a tad too yellow for my skin tone so I wasn't able to properly wear the product for a long time to make a sound judgement.
Although I had the same problem as the stick concealer is that it has a glowy dewy finish which enhances the spots I tried to correct / conceal.
I do like the highlighter in this palette though. The colour is quite nice and it leaves a nice shimmer without it being overly sparkly.
Last thing is, I find the fluffier side of the brush quite useless. It was much better blending the products with the other flat side or my fingers!

I really like this product. It applied quite smoothly and dried quickly.
It has nice cover up and it wasn't patchy. However, I think it's best to use a primer since it seemed to enhance my fine lines. Although I think the colour is a bit dark for me, it might be the reason for the enhancement ?
Anyway, I do see myself using a product like this.. it's liquid housed in a cushion, in another layer for the puff. I think it's so handy to travel with. Also, I am assuming because most of the liquid is housed in the cushion, it prevents leaks as well!

I received this product for free from the Product Review Club
I like how handy it is and the price.. so good!
I liked the volume it gave it, as some dry shampoos tend to fall flat. However I think because it is volumizing, it feels a bit like hair spray? A little stiff and not as fluffy as how the other dry shampoos make me feel.
I do like the scent and the ease of application, it didn't have the white powder residue like many others so I was comfortable to use it in the morning before I head out instead of at night as I usually do.
I think it's a handy product for someone who needs volume as one of the perks of their dry shampoo and likes a light scent. The only con I get from this is that bit of residue feeling which makes me want to wash my hair faster than later lol.

Degree® Women Active Shield Dry Spray Antiperspirant
It was a really good spray! It felt refreshed and dry. The only con is right after spraying, I always cough because the air around just feels so weird! haha

I find the rich cream too rich for me. I guess maybe because it is also the summer, I had a bit of outbreak on my chin. I did find that if I used it when I was super dry (when I was camping) I didn't get break outs.
It is a rich cream and along with using the cleanser, it made my skin very soft and smooth!
I do prefer using this cream when I have drier skin, maybe i will try it again in the winter.
The cream is very good!

PEOPLE!!! This product is amazing. I know usually my reviews aren't this exciting but wow, I never tried this product before (I'm super bad with skincare btw) but this foaming cleanser was so gentle and easy to use!
Also it's fairly cheap, I was able to find it for 12.99 on sale at Shoppers Drug Mart and I quickly bought another one for backup.
One or two pumps and it's enough to cover the whole face, so gentle and I didn't get any allergic reaction from it. Also there was no scent which is a plus in my book!
After using it for about a week, I found my skin to be softer! I really like this cleanser!
